Coffee is vile, an insult to the taste buds. But it's obviously become fashionable over the last few years to ponce around in a generic coffee shop spending £2+ on something that tastes like the stuff you chip off the bottom of the pan after you've burnt some baked beans. Most people don't even like the taste of it so have to disguise it with various offerings of milk, sugar, syrups, chocolate shavings etc, but as long as they can be seen supping from their cup that's all that matters

Let it stew man, catch it just as the tannin starts to give it bitter taste - about 7 minutes. Add a drop of milk, and you're away. I like my tea stronger than most people drink coffee. I think I have a tannin addiction...

I've never had a cup of tea that wasn't disgusting in at least 2 different ways. And OK, sure, maybe every single one of them's been somehow defective but tea drinkers have been drinking from the same pot and going MMMMMM lovely tea...

Some people just have poorly wired tastebuds I guess, it'd take me too long to solder them up right so I'll just let them get on with it.
